The present disclosure provides a novel serine protease variant.

The present invention relates to compositions such as cleaning compositions comprising a mix of enzymes. The invention further relates to use of compositions comprising such enzymes in cleaning processes.

The present invention relates to methods for obtaining protease variants with improved properties. The present invention also relates to protease variants, compositions comprising the protease variants and methods of using the protease variants.

The present invention relates to the use of isolated polypeptides having protease activity and isolated polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides in animal feed and detergents. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides as well as methods of producing and using the polypeptides in e.g. animal feed and detergents.

The present disclosure relates to methods and products associated with in vitro and in vivo protease activity measurements and enzyme profiling. Some aspects of the present disclosure relate to measuring remotely triggered protease activity. In particular, the disclosure relates to methods of in vivo processing of exogenous molecules followed by detection of signature molecules as representative of the presence or absence of active enzymes associated with disease or conditions. The disclosure also relates to products, kits, and databases for use in the methods of the disclosure.

A process for treating brewers spent grains for producing a high value protein product and a cellulosic residue, both from brewers spent grains that have not gone through fermentation. The high value protein product is useful as a protein supplement, or feed for livestock and poultry, and the cellulosic residue has value as a feedstock for a thermochemical process unit, such as for the production of a biofuel.

Methods and compositions are provided for integrating genes of interest into the genome of a Bacillus sp. cell without the integration of a selectable marker into said genome. The methods employ a dual circular recombinant DNA system for introduction of a guide RNA/Cas endonuclease system (also referred to as an RNA guided endonuclease, RGEN) as well as a donor DNA into a Bacillus sp. cell, and providing a highly effective system for inserting genes of interest into the genome of said Bacillus sp. cell.

The present invention has revealed that an antiviral agent containing a serine protease such as subtilisin, nattokinase, and trypsin has an effect of inactivating non-envelope type viruses, and that combining such an antiviral agent containing a serine protease with a cationic polymer enhances the inactivation effect of the antiviral agent against non-envelope type viruses. As a result, an antiviral agent that is highly safe, that has a high virus inactivation ability, and that contains a component that is inexpensive in terms the manufacturing cost and a cationic polymer, was discovered.

Biodegradable polyester article comprising enzymes. The present invention relates to novel biodegradable plastic articles comprising a polyester and biological entities able to degrade such polyester, and wherein the biological entities are homogeneously dispersed in the plastic articles. The invention also relates to a process for producing such plastic articles, comprising a step of mixing biological entities with a selected carrier in a liquid composition or in a masterbatch with the polyester.
